Feels a bit like a baby game... a game for babies...
This review is for the Playdate version

This game is pretty disappointing, you don't really feel any challenge on completing any level, you can just go through it without thinking much. The challenge only comes if you want to get the sweat stats at the end of the levels : I tried it and it was not really fun. I would have liked if the levels were not as easy as they are, even when you are not aiming at a perfect score. This really makes the game feel empty. The drawings are nice though.
